Grape Juice May Inhibit Breast Tumors

A recent study has indicated that Concord grape juice may inhibit the formation of breast tumors in laboratory rats while also reducing the amount of DNA damage to mammary glands. This new study appears in the latest issue of Cancer Letters.

Investigators looked at the early stage of cancer development and observed that consuming Concord grape juice would suppress the growth of breast tumors in laboratory mice. They also found that Concord grape juice reduced damage to the DNA of the mammary gland. The study was led by Keith Singletary, Ph.D., Professor of Nutrition, Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, University of Illinois. He says that in a related previous study, they saw a similar effect in what they call the promotion stage, which is a later stage of cancer development. Singletary claims that taken together, these results are very interesting merit additional study.

Concord grape juice contains various Active ingredients including phytochemicals. These can block the initiation stage of tumor formation. Cancer develops over an extended period of time in at least two stages - initiation and promotion. The initiation, or early stage of cancer, may occur when there is damage to a cell's DNA resulting from a variety of factors including the exposure to carcinogens or to oxygen free radical species. The promotion stage occurs when these "initiated" cells are then stimulated to reproduce faster than surrounding normal cells. When this study results are combined with the previous one, which showed effect on the later stage of cancer development, Concord grape juice appears to have significant suppressive effect on both stages of cancer development.
